Ok, I see it. Anything else? lol

Maybe the other gun rights organizations should take up the bumpfire stock fight? Make a real name for themselves to encourage membership and contributions? Give the NRA some competition and advance our rights at the same time.
Let's get them going on that.

The NRA gets almost the same hostile reaction on many gun forums as it does from the mainstream press! Not a big fan of banning anything, maybe it will end up regulated like sbr’s, supressor’s, etc. it is already, like it or not, illegal to own a true machine gun without an expensive and intrusive process. We have to win with the general public and I am not sure how we can on this, with these bump stocks closely simulating full auto fire, but not having the same requirements of a true machine gun. At least with me, this is different than high cap mag bans etc. I am not sure I am willing to Abandon NRA yet.

Trading a worthless, but fun, toy in exchange for reciprocity is something I can get behind.

I own a lot of (almost) worthless but fun firearm stuff, so I would never use the argument of "that don't bother me none!" or "there's no sporting purpose for X!"


However...

I'd happily exchange a what most consider to be a gimmicky boutique item for something that's very, very useful - suppressors. I think even bump stock owners (who I know not one) would get on board with this.

Give a little get a lot.



(Don't let my wife catch on to my bargaining strategy)

I have been paying on a life membership. I’ll call them on my lunch tomorrow and cancel my membership. My money would be much better spent with the GOA.

Because they get things done?

Lets just unregulate full autos. Hell Walmart should sell them.

Should make them glock priced too so everyone can afford one.

I knew this was coming. The NRA wants so badly to "fit in" with the changing political views. I dont own a bump stock or really have any need for them but the nra supporting the look at legality for bump fire stocks is just one more chip away at the wall protecting the 2a.

I'm on board with this.

You're claiming the NRA is trying to impress the left? Really?

would definitely spice things up in the criminal world. Would also make Negligent Discharges more interesting too! How cool would that be!

What? There are 2 letter rulings on bump stocks. They are not machine guns. Another review changes nothing.

Saw a crappy animation of an standard AR (normal stock) as being representative of a bump fire weapon....... oh, it also had a grenade launcher attachment.

But did it have a shoulder thing that goes up?

Let's open the registry back up, how many of these are 'in the wild' and one guy does something wronf with it

Banning bump firing = banning semi autos.

Banning bump firing = banning semi autos.

2:25 into this vid that is not semi-auto. Delusional if you think so.

Agreed!!! A worthless toy at best. Who really needs one of these Rube Goldberg devices? Wannabes?

You cannot and will not ban a technique. Not one more inch.
